Mookie Betts of the Los Angeles Dodgers has been on fire this season, hitting 26 home runs before the All-Star break. He has even set a franchise record for leadoff home runs with 10. Now, Betts will test his power in the Home Run Derby in Seattle. Despite his smaller stature, Betts has proven that he can outslug other bigger players in the league. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts has been impressed with Betts' power, praising his ability to generate torque and ground force in his swing. Betts will face tough competition in the derby, including Vladimir Guerro Jr., Pete Alonso, and Julio Rodriguez. However, Betts' recent hot streak and his determination to bring awareness to Black culture in baseball make him a strong contender. If he wins, he plans to credit his wife for encouraging him to participate. Can Betts continue his home run success in the Home Run Derby and claim the title? Only time will tell.
